Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Lipocine Inc. (“Lipocine” or the “Company”) in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are comprised of the financial statements of Lipocine and its subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the Company. In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented includes all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring items) necessary for fair presentation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain information required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles has been condensed or omitted in accordance with rules and regulations of the SEC. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period or for the year ending December 31, 2022.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to reporting of the assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The Company believes that its existing capital resources, together with interest thereon, will be sufficient to meet its projected operating requirements through at least March 31, 2023 which includes an on-going clinical study for LPCN 1148, compliance with regulatory requirements and on-going litigation activities. The Company has based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and the Company could utilize its available capital resources sooner than it currently expects if additional activities are performed by the Company including clinical studies for LPCN 1148, LPCN 1144, LPCN 1111, LPCN 1107 and neuroactive steroids (“NAS”) including LPCN 1544 and LPCN 2101. While the Company believes it has sufficient liquidity and capital resources to fund our projected operating requirements through at least March 31, 2023, the Company will need to raise additional capital at some point through the equity or debt markets or via out-licensing activities, before or after March 31, 2023, to support its operations. If the Company is unsuccessful in raising additional capital, its ability to continue as a going concern will become a risk. Further, the Company’s operating plan may change, and the Company may need additional funds to meet operational needs and capital requirements for product development, regulatory compliance and clinical trial activities sooner than planned. In addition, the Company’s capital resources may be consumed more rapidly if it pursues additional clinical studies for LPCN 1148, LPCN 1144, LPCN 1111, LPCN 1107, and NAS including LPCN 1154 and LPCN 2101. Conversely, the Company’s capital resources could last longer if it reduces expenses, reduces the number of activities currently contemplated under our operating plan, if it terminates, modifies the design or suspends on-going clinical studies, or if it terminates or settles any on-going litigation activities.

(2) Revenue

The Company generates most of its revenue from license and royalty arrangements. At inception of each contract, the Company identifies the goods and services that have been promised to the customer and each of those that represent a distinct performance obligation, determines the transaction price including any variable consideration, allocates the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations and determines whether control transfers to the customer at a point in time or over time. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company reassess its reserves for variable consideration at each reporting date and makes adjustments, if necessary, which may affect revenue and earnings in periods in which any such changes become known.

See Note 8 for a description of the license agreement with Antares Pharma, Inc. See Note 12 for a description of the agreement with Spriaso.

License Fees. For distinct license performance obligations, upfront license fees are recognized when the Company satisfies the underlying performance obligation. This generally occurs upon transfer of the right to use the Company’s licensed technology to the customer. In addition, license arrangements may include contingent milestone payments, which are due following achievement by our licensee of specified sales or regulatory milestones and the licensee and/or Company will fulfill its performance obligation prior to achievement of these milestones. Because of the uncertainty of the milestone achievement, and/or the dependence on sales of our licensee, variable consideration for contingent milestones is fully constrained and is not recognized as revenue until the milestone is achieved by our licensee, to the extent collectability is reasonably certain.

Royalties. Royalties revenue consists of sales-based and minimum royalties earned under licenses agreements for our products. Performance obligations under these licenses, which consist of the right to use the Company’s proprietary technology, are satisfied at a point in time corresponding with delivery of the underlying technology rights to the licensee, which is generally upon transfer of the licensed technology/product to the customer. Sales-based royalties revenue represents variable consideration under the license agreements and is recognized in the period a customer sells products incorporating the Company’s licensed technologies/products. The Company estimates sales-based royalties revenue earned but unpaid at each reporting period using information provided by the licensee. The Company’s license arrangements may also provide for minimum royalties, which the Company recognizes upon the satisfaction of the underlying performance obligation, which generally occurs with delivery of the underlying technology rights to the licensee. Sales-based and minimum royalties are generally due within 45 days after the end of each quarter in which they are earned.

Contract Assets

Contract assets consist of minimum royalty revenue earned in relation to the license agreement but not yet payable based on the terms of the contract. The contract asset as of March 31, 2022 is related to the Antares License Agreement.

Revenue Concentration

A major customer is considered to be one that comprises more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues. There was no revenue recognized for either the three months ended March 31, 2022, or March 31, 2021.

(3) Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus, where applicable, the additional potential common shares that would have been outstanding related to dilutive options, warrants and, unvested restricted stock units to the extent such shares are dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

Schedule of Computation of Basic and Diluted Earnings (loss) Per Share of Common Stock 

The computation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 does not include the following stock options and warrants to purchase shares or unvested restricted stock units in the computation of diluted loss per share because these instruments were antidilutive:

Schedule of Anti-dilutive Securities Excluded from Computation of Earnings Per Share 

(4) Marketable Investment Securities

The Company has classified its marketable investment securities as available-for-sale securities, all of which are debt securities. These securities are carried at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity until realized. Gains and losses on investment security transactions are reported on the specific-identification method. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. The amortized cost, gross unrealized holding gains, gross unrealized holding losses, and fair value for available-for-sale securities by major security type and class of security as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, were as follows:

Schedule of Available-for-Sale Securities 

Maturities of debt securities classified as available-for-sale securities as of March 31, 2022, are as follows:

Schedule of Maturities of Debt Securities Classified as Available-for-sale Securities 

There were no sales of marketable investment securities during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021 and therefore no realized gains or losses. Additionally, $25.2 million and $450,000 of marketable investment securities matured during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The Company determined there were no other-than-temporary impairments for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021.

(5) Fair Value

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

All of the Company’s financial instruments are valued using quoted prices in active markets or based on other observable inputs. For accrued interest income, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Schedule of Fair Value, Assets Measured on Recurring Basis 

The following methods and assumptions were used to determine the fair value of each class of assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the balance sheets:

Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents primarily consist of highly-rated money market funds and treasury bills with original maturities to the Company of three months or less and are purchased daily at par value with specified yield rates. Cash equivalents related to money market funds and treasury bills are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices or broker or dealer quotations for similar assets.

Corporate bonds, notes, and commercial paper: The Company uses a third-party pricing service to value these investments. Corporate bonds, notes and commercial paper are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using broker/dealer quotes, bids and offers, benchmark yields and credit spreads and other observable inputs.

Warrant liability: The warrant liability (which relates to warrants to purchase shares of common stock) is marked-to-market each reporting period with the change in fair value recorded to other income (expense) in the accompanying statements of operations until the warrants are exercised, expire or other facts and circumstances lead the warrant liability to be reclassified to stockholders’ equity. The fair value of the warrant liability is estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The significant assumptions used in preparing the option pricing model for valuing the warrant liability as of March 31, 2022, include (i) volatility of 100%, (ii) risk free interest rate of 2.64%, (iii) strike price of $0.50, (iv) fair value of common stock of $1.38, and (v) expected life of 2.63 years. The significant assumptions used in preparing the option pricing model for valuing the warrant liability as of December 31, 2021, include (i) volatility of 100%, (ii) risk free interest rate of 0.97%, (iii) strike price of $0.50, (iv) fair value of common stock of $0.99, and (v) expected life of 2.88 years.

The Company’s accounting policy is to recognize transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy on the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

(6) Loan and Security Agreements

Silicon Valley Bank Loan

On January 5, 2018, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) pursuant to which SVB agreed to lend the Company $10.0 million. The principal borrowed under the Loan and Security Agreement bears interest at a rate equal to the Prime Rate, as reported in the money rates section of The Wall Street Journal or any successor publication representing the rate of interest per annum then in effect, plus one percent per annum (4.5% as of March 31, 2022), which interest is payable monthly. Additionally on April 1, 2020, the Company entered into a Deferral Agreement with SVB. Under the Deferral Agreement, principal repayments were deferred by six months and the Company was only required to make monthly interest payments. The loan matures on June 1, 2022. Previously, the Company only made monthly interest payments until December 31, 2018, following which the Company also made equal monthly payments of principal and interest until the signing of the Deferral Agreement. The Company will also be required to pay an additional final payment at maturity equal to $650,000 (the “Final Payment Charge”). The Final Payment Charge will be due on the scheduled maturity date and as of March 31, 2022, approximately $649,000 has been recognized as an increase to the principal balance with a corresponding charge to interest expense with the remaining final payment charge to be recognized over the term of the facility using the effective interest method. At its option, the Company may prepay all amounts owed under the Loan and Security Agreement (including all accrued and unpaid interest and the Final Payment Charge).

In connection with the Loan and Security Agreement, the Company granted to SVB a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets now owned or hereafter acquired, excluding intellectual property and certain other assets. In addition, as TLANDO was not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) prior to May 31, 2018, the Company maintained $5.0 million of cash collateral at SVB as required under the Loan and Security Agreement until such time as TLANDO is approved by the FDA. However, on February 16, 2021, the Company amended the Loan and Security Agreement with SVB to, among other things, remove the financial trigger and financial trigger release event provisions requiring the Company to maintain a minimum cash collateral value and collateral pledge thereof.

While any amounts are outstanding under the Loan and Security Agreement, the Company is subject to a number of affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants regarding dispositions of property, business combinations or acquisitions, incurrence of additional indebtedness and transactions with affiliates, among other customary covenants. The credit facility also includes events of default, the occurrence and continuation of which could cause interest to be charged at the rate that is otherwise applicable plus 5.0% and would provide SVB, as collateral agent, with the right to exercise remedies against the Company and the collateral securing the credit facility, including foreclosure against the property securing the credit facilities, including its cash. These events of default include, among other things, any failure by the Company to pay principal or interest due under the credit facility, a breach of certain covenants under the credit facility, the Company’s insolvency, a material adverse change, and one or more judgments against the Company in an amount greater than $100,000 individually or in the aggregate.

Future maturities of principal payments on the Loan and Security Agreement as of March 31, 2022, are as follows:

Schedule of Future Maturities of Principal Payments 

(7) Income Taxes

The tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company’s effective tax rate for the full year adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment.

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, net of expected reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities, as it believes it is more likely than not that these benefits will not be realized.

(8) Contractual Agreements

On March 29, 2012, the Company terminated its collaborative agreement with Solvay Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (later acquired by Abbott Products, Inc.) for TLANDO. As part of the termination, the Company reacquired the rights to the intellectual property from Abbott. All obligations under the prior license agreement have been completed except that Lipocine will owe Abbott a perpetual 1% royalty on our licensee’s net sales of TLANDO. Such royalties are limited to $1.0 million in the first two calendar years following product launch, after which period there is not a cap on royalties and no maximum aggregate amount. If generic versions of any such product are introduced, then royalties are reduced by 50%. The Company did not incur any royalties during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021.

On October 14, 2021, the Company entered into a license agreement (“License Agreement”) with Antares Pharma, Inc. (“Antares”) pursuant to which the Company granted to Antares an exclusive, royalty-bearing, sublicensable right and license to develop and commercialize, upon final approval of TLANDO® from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), the Company’s TLANDO product with respect to testosterone replacement therapy in males for conditions associated with a deficiency or absence of endogenous testosterone, as indicated in NDA No. 208088, treatment of Klinefelter syndrome, and pediatric indications relating to testosterone replacement therapy in males for conditions associated with a deficiency or absence of endogenous testosterone (the “Field”), in each case within the United States. The Antares License Agreement also provides Antares with an option, exercisable on or before March 31, 2022, to license TLANDO XR, the Company’s potential once-daily oral product candidate for testosterone replacement therapy. On April 1, 2022, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the License Agreement (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the License Agreement was amended to extend the deadline by which Antares shall exercise its option to license TLANDO XR to June 30, 2022. As consideration for the Company agreeing to enter into the Amendment, in April 2022 Antares paid the Company a non-refundable cash fee of $500,000 which will be creditable toward the license fee agreed to in the License Agreement of $4 million. Upon execution of the Antares License Agreement, Antares paid to the Company an initial payment of $11.0 million. Antares will also make additional payments of $5.0 million to the Company on each of January 1, 2025, and January 1, 2026, provided that certain conditions are satisfied. The Company is also eligible to receive milestone payments of up to $160.0 million in the aggregate, depending on the achievement of certain sales milestones in a single calendar year with respect to all products licensed by Antares under the Antares License Agreement. In addition, upon commercialization, the Company will receive tiered royalty payments at rates ranging from percentages in the mid-teens to up to 20% of net sales of TLANDO in the United States, subject to certain minimum royalty obligations. If Antares exercises its option to license TLANDO XR, the Company will be entitled to an additional payment of $3.5 million, as well as development milestone payments of up to $35.0 million in the aggregate and tiered royalty payments at rates ranging from percentages in the mid-teens to 20% of net sales of TLANDO XR in the United States. The Company retains development and commercialization rights in the rest of the world, and with respect to applications outside of the Field inside or outside the United States. Antares will also purchase certain existing inventory of licensed products from the Company, subject to testing and acceptance procedures. Finally, pursuant to the terms of the Antares License Agreement, Antares is generally responsible for expenses relating to the development (including the conduct of any clinical trials) and commercialization of licensed products in the Field in the United States, while the Company is generally responsible for expenses relating to development activities outside of the Field and/or the United States. The Company did not recognize any revenue under the Antares Licensing Agreement during either the three months ended March 31, 2022, or March 31, 2021.

The Company has entered into agreements with various contract organizations that conduct preclinical, clinical, analytical and manufacturing development work on behalf of the Company as well as a number of independent contractors and primarily clinical researchers who serve as advisors to the Company. The Company incurred expenses of $1.0 million and $837,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 under these agreements and has recorded these expenses in research and development expenses.

(9) Leases

The Company has a non-cancelable operating lease for office space and laboratory facilities in Salt Lake City, Utah. The term of the lease has been extended through February 28, 2023.

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases as of March 31, 2022 are:

Schedule of Future Minimum Rental Payments for Operating Leases 

The Company’s rent expense was $84,000 and $83,000 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(10) Stockholders’ Equity

On January 28, 2021, the Company completed a public offering of securities registered under an effective registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“January 2021 Offering”). The gross proceeds from the January 2021 Offering were approximately $28.7 million, before deducting underwriter fees and other offering expenses of $1.9 million. In the January 2021 Offering, the Company sold 16,428,571 shares of its common stock.

On February 27, 2020, the Company completed a registered direct offering of securities registered under an effective registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“February 2020 Offering”). The gross proceeds from the February 2020 Offering were approximately $6.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses of $347,000. In the February 2020 Offering, the Company sold 10,084,034 Class A Units at an offering price of $0.595 per unit, with each Class A Unit consisting of one share of its common stock and one-half of a common warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.53 per share of common stock. Additionally, the common stock warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on February 27, 2025. By their terms, however, the common stock warrants cannot be exercised at any time that the common stock warrant holder would beneficially own, after such exercise, more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the shares of common stock then outstanding after giving effect to such exercise.

On November 18, 2019, the Company completed a public offering of securities registered under an effective registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“November 2019 Offering”). The gross proceeds from the November 2019 Offering were approximately $6.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses of $404,000. In the November 2019 Offering, the Company sold (i) 10,450,000 Class A Units, with each Class A Unit consisted of one share of its common stock and a common warrant to purchase one share of its common stock, and (ii) 1,550,000 Class B Units, with each Class B Unit consisting of one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of its common stock and a common warrant to purchase one share of its common stock, at a price of $0.50 per Class A Unit and $0.4999 per Class B Unit. The pre-funded warrants, which were exercised for common stock in December 2019, were issued in lieu of common stock in order to ensure the purchaser did not exceed certain beneficial ownership limitations. The pre-funded warrants were immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $.0001 per share, subject to adjustment. Additionally, the common stock warrants were immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, subject to adjustment, and expire on November 17, 2024. By their terms, however, neither the pre-funded warrants nor the common stock warrants can be exercised at any time that the pre-funded warrant holder or the common stock warrant holder would beneficially own, after such exercise, more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the shares of common stock then outstanding after giving effect to such exercise. On the date of the November 2019 Offering, the Company allocated approximately $768,000 and $4.8 million to common stock/additional paid-in capital and warrant liability, respectively.

On March 6, 2017, the Company entered into the Sales Agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”) pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell, from time to time, shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to the amount the Company registered on an effective registration statement pursuant to which the offering is being made. The Company currently has registered up to $50.0 million for sale under the Sales Agreement, pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-250072) through Cantor as the Company’s sales agent. Cantor may sell the Company’s common stock by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, including sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other existing trade market for our common stock, in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to prevailing market prices, or any other method permitted by law. Cantor uses its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell these shares. The Company pays Cantor 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of shares under the Sales Agreement. In addition, the Company has also provided Cantor with customary indemnification rights.

The shares of the Company’s common stock sold under the Sales Agreement are sold and issued pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-250072) (the “Form S-3”), which was previously declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the related prospectus and one or more prospectus supplements.

The Company is not obligated to make any sales of its common stock under the Sales Agreement. The offering of common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the Sales Agreement as permitted therein. The Company and Cantor may each terminate the Sales Agreement at any time upon ten days’ prior notice.

As of March 31, 2022, we had sold an aggregate of 15,023,073 shares at a weighted-average sales price of $2.19 per share under the ATM for aggregate gross proceeds of $32.9 million and net proceeds of $31.7 million, after deducting sales agent commission and discounts and our other offering costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company did not sell any shares of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company sold 1,811,238 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement at a weighted-average sales price of $1.95 per share, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $3.4 million under the Sales Agreement, which is net of $112,000 in expenses. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $41.2 million available for sale under the Sales Agreement.
